Can we please just talk about how amazing he is both as Noah Bennet and as Steven Carrington? (And just in general, to be completely honest) His face though. Look at it.

Okay, so. I got the idea to post these two scenes together so long ago, but alas, I don't know how to make gifs and the Dynasty one (which is credited to dref22 ) is too large for tumblr's gif size requirements. (The one from Heroes was snagged from lexpurple on tumblr.)

From the top left, pancakes at Chow, yellow curry at Lemongrass, veggie burger at The Counter, heirloom potato and arugula pizza at Pizza Antica, ice cream sandwich at CREAM, fried bananas with coconut ice cream at Lemongrass, Indian lentil and chickpea dishes with rice at Swagat, rum cake I made for my grandpa's 83rd birthday and green beans I made for Christmas.

2013 was an unexpectedly exciting year for me fandom-wise and here were a few of my most squee-inducing moments:

Title: Five of Noah Bennet's Most Awkward ChristmasesCharacters: Noah Bennet/Various, Eric Thompson, Claude Rains, Sandra Bennet, Claire Bennet, Eden McCain, Lauren Gilmore, Peter PetrelliRating: R (to be on the safe side but most of the explicitness is only implied)Warnings: Both het and slash are portrayed or implied here. Word Count: 952

I didn't start watching Heroes until the summer break between seasons 3 and 4. I watched seasons 1-3 on Netflix in the month of June 2009. In so many ways I feel very sad that I missed out on being a part of the fandom when the show was really on top. But it will forever be my favorite show no matter what. And I'm very happy to have been able to be around during the 4th and final season and for the friendships I've made as a result of this.

Okay, can we just talk about the Monte Carlo TV Festival of 2012 for just a minute? Because seriously, I don't know what was going on there, but it was the festival of Jack Coleman's hand gestures. In my very wildest dreams, I dream that I could have been there...

Because Jack Coleman does many, many awesome things with his hands. And I don't think I even quite realized how often and with such enthusiasm until I started putting this together. He really uses his hands a lot in his acting and all the time as far as I can tell. XD

A lot of the credit for these screencaps goes to dref22 <3 This will be the first of at least two posts because there is too much epicness for just one post!
